These koans, or parables, were translated into English from a book called
the Shaseki-shu (Collection of Stone and Sand), written late in the
thirteenth century by the Japanese Zen teacher Muju (the "non-dweller"),
and from anecdotes of Zen monks taken from various books published in
Japan around the turn of the 20th century.
